NBC News: Obama Sat on Knowledge of Hack; Thought Hillary Would Win
Thursday, December 15, 2016 10:33 PM

By: Greg Richter

The Obama White House knew about Russian hacking in the summer of 2015, but kept quiet about it because it thought Democrat Hillary Clinton would win anyway, and it did not want to risk a cyberwar with America's Cold War foe, NBC News reported.

"They thought she was going to win, so they were willing to kick the can down the road," NBC quoted one government official familiar with the situation.

Still, NBC noted, Obama did mention the hack in a private conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin during September's G-20 summit in China. He told Putin there would be consequences if the hacks continued, but was not specific.

Obama himself mentioned speaking to Putin in an interview with National Public Radio set to air Friday.

Shouldn't the MSM wait for the hacking charges to actually be proven before moving on to the next series of Russia stole the election from Hillary stories?

Naah.

BTW we've finally progressed beyond the point where democrat/MSM politicking in their usual dishonest manner has the potential to affect international relations in a very negative way.
